In order to identify the optimum condition for the preparation of cellulose nanocrystal, acidic hydrolysis of the produced alpha-cellulose was done using 64% sulfuric acid, 25, 35 and 45 minute as time and at 35, 45 and 55 degree centigrade as temperature. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), X-Ray Diffraction, and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) were used to identify the quantitative and qualitative properties of cellulose nanocrystals. AFM micrographs showed that more severe condition of the treatments decreased the thickness of the cellulose nanocrystals. XRD results also demonstrated that the preparation stages of alpha-cellulose as well as acidic hydrolysis treatments much effectively increased the degree of crystallinity. DLS results indicated that 98.7 percent of the produced nanocrystals under the condition of 55 degree centigrade and 45 minute were in the range of 18-95 ηm, whose highest abundance was in the range of 18-39 ηm. Thus, the mentioned condition were determined as the best and optimum condition for the production of cellulose nanocrystal from cotton stalk cellulose.تحقیقات علوم چوب وکاغذ ایرانموسسه تحقیقات جنگلها و مراتع کشور1735-091330

The boards made for this study contained 25% lignocellolosic material, Date Palm pruning residues (both fibers and chips) and 75% Gypsum powder. Variable factors were lignocellolosic materials (fibers and chips at different proprotion (0:100, 5:95, 10:90, 15:85, and 20:80). Totally, 15 boards were manufactured, and samples of all the boards made were tested after curing for 14 days by the methods of Japanese Industrial Standard - R9111 to obtain mean values of Bending strength (MOR), Bending stiffness (MOE), Internal bond strength (I.B), thickness swelling (TS) and water absorption (WA). Gypsum particleboard (GPB) has high thickness swelling (TS), high water absorption (WA), and low mechanical properties compared with GPB reinforced fibers. The properties of GPB were improved by adding fibers. The experimental results showed that GPB with the added fibers had good physical and mechanical properties compared with those of gypsum particleboard with no added fibers. On the other hand, based on the achieved results both mechanical and physical properties of boards increarse with increasing the fiber proprotion. It can be concluded that Date palm fibers are a good material as reinforcement for the manufacture of Gypsum bounded board.تحقیقات علوم چوب وکاغذ ایرانموسسه تحقیقات جنگلها و مراتع کشور1735-091330

Determining the best treatment in terms of physical and mechanical properties and exploring the effect of using cotton stalks in the production of the composites were among the major objectives of this study. Six treatments consisting of Polypropylene, 40, 55 and 70 percent level of cotton stalks and two fillers (cotton stalks with and without barks) were developed. Maleic anhydride modified polypropylene (3% wt) was applied to each treatment. The mixing and granulation of the plastic and cotton silk flour was carried out using twin screw extruder model 4815. After preparing and shearing of samples, the mechanical properties of composites including tensile strength, rupture modulus and elasticity modulus were calculated in accordance with D-6109 and ASTM D-7031 standards. In addition, water absorption and thickness swelling tests were performed according to D-570-98 standard. The results showed that an increase in the flour of cotton stalk reduced the tensile strength and rupture modulus on the one hand, and increased the bending elasticity modulus on the other hand. In terms of the performance of the filler, there was a significant difference between values of rupture modulus and elasticity modulus at 95% level whereas this difference was not significant for tensile strength. Moreover, this difference was significant for values of water absorption and thickness swelling.

To achieve the aim, a pre-hydrolysis liquor containing 0.06% acid sulfuric, soda-AQ pulping, and OD0ED1 bleaching sequence were used. The results show that using at least 0.40 kappa factor at D0 stage was necessary to gain access a high quality dissolving pulp including characteristics like having brightness level and α-cellulose content higher than 86% and 98%, respectively. A kappa reduction of 40.3% was achieved by performing a single stage oxygen delignification after soda-AQ pulping to drop kappa number of pulp from 14.1 to 8.4 prior to entrancing the pulp into the final bleaching stage. The results illustrated that producing acid pre-hydrolyzed soda-AQ dissolving pulp including high α-cellulose content and brightness, and even viscosity is completely feasible through controlling and optimizing the acid pre-hydrolysis, pulping, oxygen delignification stages, and D0ED1 bleaching sequence.تحقیقات علوم چوب وکاغذ ایرانموسسه تحقیقات جنگلها و مراتع کشور1735-091330

Soy oil was used for the heat treatment modification. Modification process of samples were done at two time, 12 and 15 hours with temperature of 180°C. Control and modified samples were covered with acid catalyzed and acrylic water based coating. Contact angle of water was measured before and after treatment. Adhesion strength of coating was determined according to ASTM 4541 standard. Obtained results of contact angle and adhesion strength were compared with the control samples. The results showed that modification process of oil-heat treatment increased contact angle. This increase continued by increasing treatment time. Increasing contact angle reduced wettability of samples’ surface. On the other hand oil-heat treatment of wood, decreased adhesion strength of coating. The lowest value of adhesion strength was observed in the modification process of 15 hours. Results of comparing coating revealed that acid catalyzed coating had higher adhesion strength than acrylic water based coating but generally no significant differences was observed between these coating.تحقیقات علوم چوب وکاغذ ایرانموسسه تحقیقات جنگلها و مراتع کشور1735-091330
